Mumbai, September 06: Salman Khan has been plagued by questions about the status of his relationship with actress Katrina Kaif recently and the Bollywood superstar is perturbed as to why the media is making big news out of the issue.
"There are so many other problems affecting people in the country, why is Salman-Katrina relationship national news?
I am not giving any clarifications, the media can write
whatever it wants. It is my personal life, if people want to know, they will have to wait and watch," Salman said in an interview with India TV.
The controversy was triggered after Katrina, who is reportedly in a relationship with the actor for quite sometime, said she was 'single'.
Salman also spoke about other controversies in his life, including his brush with the law twice and his relationship with Bollywood actors Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwariya Rai.
The 45-year-old actor, who is facing trial for killing black bucks in Rajasthan over a decade ago, said that the case does not stand against him.
"There is no case against me. The first post-mortem report of the animals did not show that they were killed by bullets. It is only said in the second report. I have been fighting the case for 11 years and till date have to take Jodhpur Court's permission before travelling anywhere," said Salman.
He had another brush with the law in a hit and run case in 2002, when his car crashed near American Express bakery in Bandra, killing one man and injuring others.
"Each time I pass that spot, it hurts me. Its the worst thing that could have ever happened. My driver Ashok was at the wheel when the car skidded while taking a turn. The case is still in court, lets see what happens," said Salman.
The actor, who is famously at logger-heads with superstar Shah Rukh Khan ever since a brawl at Katrina's birthday party, said that he respects the latter as an actor still remembers the good times he shared with him.
"I have a lot of respect for Shah Rukh as an actor. We shared some good times playing brothers in 'Karan Arjun'.
There is no clash between us, but some misunderstandings crop up time and again," he said.
Salman, who was in a relationship with actress Aishwariya Rai for a few years, said he is glad that she has settled into a happy married life.
"I am very happy she is married to Abhishek. He is a great guy from a good family. The best thing I can want for her is that she leads a happy life," said Salman.

Ariyawathe, Maid in Saudi
I have ventured to visit this website to write something different. It is about a whole society taken for a ride.
There is NO MONARCHY in Islam., and yet all 53 Muslim countries are either Monarchy (Kingship) or held under the bayonet of the gun (US Missiles) by cruel dictators., wearing Green Dresses and Skull Caps. This is hypocricy of the highest kind. Good Muslims must free their countries from these evil Monarchs., cruel dictators., who are not muslims, but hypocrites with Islamic names. Today i shall dwell on a project i am undertaking., to expose the ugly reality.
Ariyawathe
I have studied the case of Ms. Ariyawathe, the Sri Lankan maid, presently undergoing medical treatment in Sri Lanka. Within the next 10-12 days, I hope to travel to Sri Lanka., along with a team of 4 Doctors of repute from Apollo Hospitals. I will meet Ms. Ariyawathe, and record her story. I will be taking my wife along, so that Ms. Ariyawathe opens her heart and tells us all – the torture she was made to endure. From preliminary reports gathered and complaint lodged, it seems this poor woman was raped by 3 generations. Her (approx) 60 year old sponsor, his 40 yr old son, and two 20 year old grandsons ! All day she was made to work as a robot., and all nite male members of the sponsor’s family would force themselves upon her, one after another. At times, 5 men raped her in one single night. The 1st Caliph of early Mohammedan Islam Abu Bakr Siddik had abolished “slavery” ; but unfortunately “voluntary slavery” seems to have returned with a bang. Holding someone’s passport is a CRIME under Geneva Convention., but expatriates do not have their Passports in their possession. Their passports are taken away as if to convey they are now held “hostage”. We know what is going on inside the Middle East and how they treat expatriates. Moral Policing keeping them under the scanner 24×7. No freedom even to wear clothes of one’s choice, or style one’s hair the way one likes it. A poor expatriate boy is not allowed to grow long hair., as looking good is the prerogative of a rich Saudi boy ! There is peace on the ground – but it is peace of the graveyard – and an air full of an impending fear ! As if Qayamat itself is due any moment.
If it is so bad., why do expatriates still come ? If it was is so bad, why the hell don’t they leave ? There are enough poor people in this world to serve the Arabs for the next 200 years. This mindset is tantamount to acknowledge that things are indeed “bad”., but any attempt to expose the truth will invite censure !
The locale is Sri Lanka, Mumbai (games played by Visa Brokers / Travel Agencies), and once the script is ready in 45 days, we shall start filming the movie. Yes. I have decided to make a Movie on Ariyawathe. We have started working on the script already, along with lyrics for the songs… The movie will be in Hindi, (dubbed in Tamil & Telugu ) with titles in English and French. I hope to release this quickie, shot in one 4-month schedule by June 2011.
Why am I telling you this ? To let you know that “enough is enough” and hatred begets hatred. The land of Islam is in reality, the land of Abu Jahal today.
